Dont cry, just do it
Wow, its over $700 for the course.
For 1- its $700 & 2nd....very, very basic & really un-informative............you would be better off buying the tree climbers companion & if Im not mistaken........if you take this course you will read it? the material they give you is ACRT`s spin on many publications that the ISA sells.
You will be better off to find a climber to help get you started & with some reading you will have gained as much knowledge as if you took the ACRT class/course. Years ago ACRT had a program that was top notch, I think it was a 6 month program & Davey usually hired those who made it through.............Now Davey has seperated themselves from ACRT except for some of the literature & even that is not really used by them anymore..........ACRT has fallen behind, their good instructors have left due to salary issues & this has become their problem...............little pay to train the future while ACRT reaps the benefits.......you would be better finding an apprenticeship program.....if you are serious?
